Essential Travel Tips to Pakistan!
Pakistan is an exciting, vibrant, colourful country that you may not have considered visiting before.There’s no doubt that it’s not a natural choice as a country to visit, it is rugged and intrepid in many ways, but that also to me adds an air of excitement to travel.

How do you spot one before it's too late, and how should you deal with the situation? I examine these two questions.
Essential Tips for Travel to Bolivia
Bolivia is full of rewarding places to visit. I strolled through in a little less than two weeks and probably should have stayed longer.

So read on to find out what, where and how!
